"People who spend most of their natural lives riding iron bicycles over the rocky roadsteads of this parish get their personalities mixed up with the personalities of their bicycle as a result of the interchanging of the atoms of each of them and you would be surprised at the number of people in these parts who are nearly half people and half bicycles." - Flann O'Brien, The Third Policeman

Man, don't laugh at these dudes....can you imagine how many blueberry pies these guys have totalled up on their Garmins (it does keep track of bike relevent info, right?)? If you're gonna age, as we all know, age with commitment, vigor, and an appetite for high stats.

Seriously: high viz, club cut, classic design (like forget the Primal Wear bizarro stuff), some dignity (none of that "Toothless Beer Gut Old Fart" stuff) cuz some of us ride fairly hard and take riding seriously even if we're not Serious Riders, and something a little humorous or wry but not self-deprecating-- because we do know our limitations even if we choose to disregard them at times.

In other words, something we can wear around the grandkids or go click-clacking into Starbuck's with.

The two Venti sized gentlemen above may be an eyeful but they're having a good time and, despite their ludicrous look, may well respect themselves. Hopefully they're self-aware but indifferent to their own appearance.

Yes. I'm liking that. Maybe just a little self-deprecating.

TEAM EXPERIENCED, or something

Maybe just a very graphic 50 as if it's a jersey number

Quite seriously....I'd buy one. I like the "road sign" symbol with "50".

Ya know, it isn't impossible. If we get enough interest we could have a few made. The Northern Calif forum did. I think the minimum order is only 10. We could get sleeveless or normal. Lets see if we get any bites.
Design can be considered in flux, improvements from suggestions are possible.
